Ok Vishal it also happened with me but I faced auto app removal problem.

I have notice that suddenly my 3-4 apps removed automatically.

But still I ignored that but when swiftx keyboard get uninstalled then i realized this seriously.

But i don't know what cause this. Everything seems to be working now.

I didn't mentioned this cause its very weird issue.

Bro don't change this phone... it is an awesome phone... also who will write the FAQ and keep noobs in check at i9003 forums if you wont be here.... ;)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vishal24387:
@ manrock111

for me its really very serious issue. Because of this problem I lost all my valuable vdos & photos. I am really frustrated because of this. I am not sure but I think it must be somethink with tweak manager options. Now I have enabled only few options

ream min free

auto zip align

ram script

swappiness

I doubt that other will affect seriously internal system (it may b bad or good). After this I will observe for some days. Then I will give my feedback.

R u saying to flash the first file given in this post,only just flash it once or use ext zip also??

Ok after long observations I've come to the conclusion that OC does work for everyone, It's just a matter of "getting used to your phone" as someone mentioned previously. Phone had a few SOD's and froze quite alot, I guess this was the injecting phase in which skin's custom kernel was being readjusted. After 3 freezes, 2 SOD's and intense lagspikes, the phone finally settled down. The biggest problem occured when trying to FC apps from the Running Tab, Closed Maps and Skype and the phone froze like anything.

@bigeye0x0, Just let it crash for a few times and hold up the power and home key's till the phone starts to get used to it. After 2-3 crashes it will be perfectly normal. So far the phone has no issues :). Knockwood.

@jesani..do i haveto to d the whole procedure again o just flash the first file..without dleting or altering any thing????
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] spacebar2011:
It didn't ask for su as you might have authorized it before.

Also, you have to mount system as R/W first.

$ adb shell
$ su
# mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

Then follow the rest as in that post without the "su" again of course.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] jesrani:
Just go in download mode, select the first file as PDA, uncheck the re-partition and reset time options and flash. Nothing else is required. This worked for me.

According to Misledz, even the OC kernel is working, the phone needs to get used to it. Maybe you should give it another try.

Incredible, simply incredible....

I'd been having this 3G issue for 2 long, entire days.

I flashed, I rebooted, I backed up, I downloaded tons of files on and on... I spent all time and energy on it, while I was supposed to work on my master thesis - I have to end it by the end of the month..

I took the train yesterday to back all my family to home, a 600km trip, with a phone with neither 3G nor edge nor anything to retrieve data except wi-fi. All I did during my 11 hours of travel was playing with Angry Brids (and angry, I was really!!). At night, I powered off my phone, which I hadn't done for 2 days, and didn't restart it until now, back to home after a new 6 hours trip by car (was still thinking of my phone nearly all the time while driving).

And guess what? MY 3G IS BACK. I swear I didn't do anything but some desparate changes yesterday on the CSC files with Notepad before I leaving home. The only thing I've done for the last 24 hours is only POWERING OFF my phone!

I9003 is like our Lord : its ways are inscrutable!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Misledz:
The combination I sent you seems to work somewhat better compared to the v2 uploaded on 21'st I don't really know why. It's stable and alot faster , wouldn't you agree?

Well I've kept the phone up for about 2 days now, Plugged it and stressed it to see if it would hang, So far so good, knockwood. Nothing's happening, it's at 300~1100ghz without any issues.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] mustali:
that sounds great!

a request-

can you please share your version with all?

can I install it on the custom ROM "ganarom"?

currently my CSC is showing unknown.... will it be a problem in applying your custom kernel?

thanks.

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] spacebar2011:
Oh hey... all's well that ends well. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Misledz:
Not really a custom kernel. It's skin's previous version of CF-Root, Non kernel that happened to be alot better and stable/faster compared to the current CF-Root*Non-Kernel*. Seems to be really lag free.

If CSC is unknown, What firmware are you on? You need to flash twice to get it to work again. Also you can use it on GanaROM since it is based off GB.

Antutu is crashing. No improvement in quadrant standards. But overall happy with the phone performance.

@skin, how can we check if the ram script is working or not?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Misledz:
I don;t know if the RAMScript is working either. For some odd reason I have only 95MB free RAM and the phone starts lagging hard again with keyboard lag, But when I clear cache, I have over 178MB free RAM. What manner of dark sorcery is this?! D:
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Skin1980:
HERE the OP from Juwe11. To check if it is enabled you must read the values of the parameter that the script change...

Now i explain better....this is the script:

#!/system/bin/sh
# Copyright© 2011 Juwe11

if [ -e /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/minfree ]; then
echo "2560,4096,6144,12288,14336,18432" > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/minfree
fi

if [ -e /proc/sys/vm/swappiness ]; then
echo "50" > /proc/sys/vm/swappiness
fi

if [ -e /proc/sys/vm/vfs_cache_pressure ]; then
echo "10" > /proc/sys/vm/vfs_cache_pressure
fi

if [ -e /proc/sys/vm/dirty_expire_centisecs ]; then
echo "500" > /proc/sys/vm/dirty_expire_centisecs
fi

if [ -e /proc/sys/vm/dirty_writeback_centisecs ]; then
echo "1000" > /proc/sys/vm/dirty_writeback_centisecs
fi

if [ -e /proc/sys/vm/dirty_ratio ]; then
echo "90" > /proc/sys/vm/dirty_ratio
fi

if [ -e /proc/sys/vm/dirty_background_ratio ]; then
echo "5" > /proc/sys/vm/dirty_background_ratio
fi

To check if it's enable you must check that file with root explorer or run in shell

cat /proc/sys/vm/dirty_background_ratio

If it is equal to 5 that's ok

cat /proc/sys/vm/dirty_ratio

if it is equal to 90 it's ok....

...continue with the other.

To know what Juwe script do... check it's OP
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Skin1980:
More free RAM is not equal to better performance. Android need to take in RAM something to start your app faster. MinFree parameter kill the apps from RAM if some other app need more RAM. With Juwe you will have a better multitasking and less lag.

Many people recommend ticking all options...

Here is the link to the new market :

www.multiupload.com/29R5839RPC

Just download the file and rename it to Vending.apk and copy paste it in your system/app folder via root explorer ....

Hope it helps...

No idea about the force close... haven't tried the theme myself as of yet....
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] spacebar2011:
Get market from the link Lordrdx posted ^^

You don't have to rename and push it. Just install it as a simple app. It will install on top of your current version as an update.

Regarding market FCs, clear you Market Data under Applications and reboot.

Btw, you can check all the options in the Tweaks from the CF_ROOT 21st version.

i was using amit cf-root on xxkph before, but after reading all this stuff about over-clocking and how it improves performance, i decided to flash skin's custom kernel. i took a nandroid back up and then re-flashed to stock kph before flashing this. i even deodexed it. so far so good

then i use the ext4 zip from earlier in this thread and my phone became stuck at the "Samunsg Galaxy S GT-I9003" screen; even after a couple of reboots, it just stayed there. so i reflashed kph and skin's cf-root again (luckily, i had a titanium back up around). now i'm running kph with skin's cf-root deodexed and nothing's gone wrong...yet...

i haven't really stressed the phone out yet, but i'm getting quadrant scores of 1200+. on amit's cf-root, i was getting about 1170+, so there's definitely an increase, but not by much. certainly not the 2000+ scores that're being posted here, so i'm pretty sure ext4 has something to do with it

can anyone tell me how to convert the file system to ext4, then? also, i hope you won't mind giving me a heads-up on:

-what might suddenly go wrong while i'm using my phone. because i hate surprises :cool:

-whether the ext4 conversion will cause any problems with my data or any complications that'll arise when i ever need to flash again (probably not until ice cream sandwich)

i'm sort of a noob to this ext4 stuff, so forgive me if any of these questions strike you as stupid (i only recently started probing into and playing with my phone)

EDIT: i also ticked all of the tweaks except for the ext4 one (obviously don't need it right now); interestingly, the phone stayed at the same place for quite some time but booted up eventually...think that i might've rushed, but i'd like confirmation
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] jesrani:
@spacebar, @Lord, thanks for the link and suggestions. The problem was actually a system app called download manager which I had uninstalled. Installing this solved the problem. Both old and new market working now.

For a day used with all options except Ram-Min and Zipalign, works well. Now have ticked these 2 options also, seems to have less RAM free now. Lets see how it works for few days.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] xGiox:
custom oc kernel is ext4 formated or has support and need to be done?

well i use gana room only for deodex,but i did it on manual way,with working busy box from sf root it was very easy i hated it before on xxkpe.now i don't use it and csc it know and btw i couldn't go back from deep sleep few times after flashing oc kernel(is it just few times only like some1 said).i have 2417 top score in quadrant standard (ex4t format also) like 200 better then 1ghz kernel and also 2711 in antutu benchmark.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] PondaRox:
yeah, you'll have to do the ext4 conversion somehow, this zip will only and ONLY deodex your phone. there was a zip like this one for ext4 conversion earlier in this thread. i tried it, but it froze my phone at the Samsung Galaxy SL GT I9003 logo or maybe it was just taking too long (i have a pretty long post on the previous page concerning my doubts, but no one seems to have paid attention to it)

xxkph. i made sure of that ;)

but seriously, i have deodexed kph several times (see the post i was talking about while answering to javul) and have had no problems whatsoever

did you do the ext4 conversion on ganarom or stock xxkph running the OC kernel? if on stock xxph, kindly tell me how you did it, any precautions i should take and any surprises i should expect (yes, if the phone takes unusually long to boot or go past the Samsung Galaxy SL GT I9003 screen, it is a surprise and i would appreciate you giving me that heads up)

if you did it on ganarom, well...have a nice day! :cool:
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] xGiox:
i did it on both. i dont know what is the problem.

1.download ext4-format.zip from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1185362 (thnx to skin1890)

3.take full back up with cvm.

4.then chose' select zip update from sd card' and select ext4.zip.

5.when its done(only should take few secs)go and restore full back up without restarting phone(i think phone wont boot anyway) and you are done. let phone till it boot(its bad if you keep getting booting animation then you screwed it,if its only SAMSUNG shining blue just wait.)

You can check it by benchmark results(not 100% sure)

Or open ADH shell in cmd and type mount you should see forrmated as ext4.

With oc kernel and ext4 scores in benchmarks are crazy high.

This cf-root OC kernel is the best thing of the month since KPH fw released. Thanks to skins. But I suffered a couple of random freezes n sod in the 1st day of using. It happens when I click to launch the apps (random). Not to mentioned, sometimes phone just hanged for a few seconds n appeared at lockscreen. So I guess it is normal to everyone too right? FYI I applied all tweaks n did EXT4 conversion after flashed all these mods in OP consequently. Before that, i'm already flashing with stock KPH. Also using trip's theme n deodex. Now I think my phone is getting more stable n benchmark scores both quite high in antutu or quadrant. Hooray! Just to share my exp
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Misledz:
SOD happens a few times, But I'm not really that concerned. It's a small sacrifice for something really great. Plus I had to drain the battery to 0% just so I could recalibrate it, For some reason the battery tends to drain a little faster than it should.

Yes, I did format ext4 (and then restored the backup). Do you suggest not doing that? If so, how should I revert?

- Should I completely flash from beginning?

- Or is there any undo method (backup-apply undo zip-restore option)?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] PondaRox:
it hasn't been long since it came out, so probably not. however, jpkp5 is just a slightly modified version of xxkph (modified in the sense to include arabic stuff, if you get my point), so you shouldn't have any problems
